This engraving was
taken from a page of an old history book,
Pecularities of American Cities by Captain Willard Glazier, 1886.
Engravings were common in books during the 19th century, before photos became
more economical. The image was scratched into wood or metal and then used to
make the print on the paper.
Update: this same
engraving also appears in a book titled "The Golden State" by McClellan,
published 1872
